-Who is this photo, Jane?-My Granny

-Who is this photo, Jane?
-My Granny. She's widowed and lives in a home for elderly people.
-Does she? I have heard that in Britain many adult children put their parents into old people's homes.
-Sometimes they do. But it doesn't mean they don't care. Let's take our family, for example. After her husbund's death, Granny Molly became much more helpless. She was unable to look after herself properly so we had to put her into a home for elderly people.
-Yes, but hold on. What if you bring her into your home and look after her in a proper way? Don't ypu miss seeing her every day?
- I do. Well, you see, living in a home for elderly people is her own choice. Besides, my parents work, I go to school, so there is no one to look after her full-time.
-Yes, but look. Do you really think she enjoys her stay there? I've been told that some of these homes are terrible!
-Some of there are, but on the whole such homes are very pleasant. My Granny has her own room. She's always able to call a trained nurse if she has any difficulties.
-Well, think of it this way. Families become less close when they don't take care of one another. They lose their warm relationship, don't they?
-Perhaps, they do. In fact, this is a problem for many families in Britain and a great number of homes for elderly people speaks for that fact. And you don't seem to like it, do you?
-No, but look at it like this. We all worry about our grandperents when they grow old, but a home for elderly people is not the best solution for the problem, is it?
